Hello all. I'm going to build a wood rack to hold 1 full cord. It will consist of 3 cinder blocks as the foundation. 2 - 16 foot 2x4's on top of that. I will level the base then place 2 - 6 foot 2x4's vertical in the end cinder blocks to serve as the side walls. I'll add 2x4 stretchers between the 16 foot boards to help stabilize things.
It occured to me that this is a pretty serious wall of wood and stability might be an issue. I'm going to put 1 of these together first and see how it goes and hopefully make more if things go well.
Anyone have some advice for keeping this thing from falling over or just generally enhancing the stability of it?
I was thinking maybe I should wrap rope or wire around it to keep it from falling over once full of wood.
Thanks
